Plastic or copper.
My wife went into the kitchen this morning to start breakfast off and slipped on a huge puddle of water. There seemed to be water dripping from one of the lights in the kitchen. Great! I went up into the roof and found a big pool of water sitting on the ceiling plaster. From the looks of it it had been there for some time. So I mopped it all up, (all 6L of it), and called the plumber. The leak was coming from the copper ring that gets used to tighten around joiners in plastic piping. When I was talking to my plumber originally he said that it’d be slightly cheaper to go with plastic. When I objected to it, (I prefer the OLD traditional way of doing things), he said that he’d never had a problem with plastic piping and so managed to convince me to allow him to use it. Now I’m not so convinced, if I had my time again I wouldn’t use it.
It looks like we’ll have to make an insurance claim to get the roof fixed.
